Wanted to say thank you for the patience as Mangled Fly Media comes back on-line. No need to talk about the struggles of the past few weeks, only that new stuff will be coming on-line again soon. Bear with me as fall is a busy time, but promise to make up for it with quality content. The Muskie Adventure season has just started and already looking like it will be a great season.
Check out the new SA 2015 catalog and you might notice the cover shot. – http://www.scientificanglers.com/book/ – some really good information inside the catalog from Bruce Richards, Dave Karzynski, and Jeff Currier. Check it out! Plus the new lines that will be coming out in November are listed. Can’t wait for the new Switch line, only a few more months and steelhead will be back.
I grew up with this magazine, so many memories. Here is a little blog post by Kirk Deeter, with a photo from Mangled Fly.
I enjoy the challenge of big brown trout during the day of the summer months. This nice brown trout starts off my July just right.
Maybe I just like the challenge. Why does it seem like I’m always fighting with my boat? I wonder who will win in the end when it comes to Jon Ray vs. Clackacraft?
Sunny Day, high pressure (from anglers and mother nature) try the spicy crab. Featured pattern in the Big Appetite Smallmouth DVD. The next 4 months are prime smallmouth time. Crabs other wise none as crayfish are not the big fly, sexy to tie patterns you read about they flat out catch fish. Plenty of open smallmouth dates open starting in July, once I get through the Hex cycle. Give me a call or shoot me an email. July – September great months to chase the bronze back before muskie and steelhead seasons.
